Busy settling in from our Arizona trip, decorating for Christmas and getting ready for our Pennsylvania trip. Played volleyball on Friday but pulled something in my left shoulder so will be backing off until we get back. Alesa is busy planning for a birthday dinner she is hosting for the neighbors on Wednesday and a dinner she will be hosting at Craig and Janet's house on Friday for her sister Tracy who will be down from Grove City, Pennsylvania. She will be busy. We golfed today but we will be busy packing and hosting for the time before we head north. Had dinner with my cousin Paul and his wife Carol this evening before leaving. Paul has been working on a smallhouse as a hobby and has done a very nice job and we stopped over to see it after dinner. He had posted a picture of one of the rooms the other day and, it looked so realistic, that everybody was trying to guess whose house it was and who was in the picture. He had it when their house was heavily damaged in hurricane Andrew and has recently repaired it and is working on it again. Good activity for him as he will be having another back surgery in January.
